Jason and I (and my cousin Chris, who was kind enough to drive me) attended Spooky Empire’s May-Hem Convention in Orlando this weekend (May 28 – 29). Okay, we really only made it on Saturday, which is fine since I’ve never been to a convention before and could only take a day of being packed into a mid-sized convention hall with hundreds of other movie fans.

So, what did we see while we were there?

Well, my original goal was simple: Locate and ask one Mr. Bruce Campbell to come on the podcast. That’s right folks, it’s all for you as I know how many of our listeners and readers love The Bruce. And to be completely honest, I’m a total BC fanboy and would consider him the ultimate “get” for our show. With that said, I’m sad to announce it didn’t happen.

Why?

Pretty simple really. The line to meet him was, to quote Jason, “approximately 47.8 miles long”; however, it looked more like 47.9 miles to me…

Regardless, I did get close enough to the mighty chin to capture this short video clip:

This is the official music video for our song "The Evil Dead". Movie footage is from The Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2: Dead By Dawn. The song and musical performances are owned by The Adorkables. No copyright infringements intended. We just wanted to make a proper music video while paying homage to one of our favorite horror movies of all time.

This looks so much like the cabin in the movie evil dead one of the best old school low budget horror movies ever I wonder if it has a seller to keep the army of darkness under lock and key . "join us one by one "

Best Fight Against an Army of Miniature Selves Who Then Get Inside You and Become an Evil Siamese Twin Before Separating and Raising an Army of the Undead Against You and Kidnapping Your Medieval Girlfriend

Army of DarknessMost hilarious moment in the third Evil Dead movie? When Ash (Bruce Campbell) fights off his evil doppelgänger, infamously responding to being called “little Goody Two- Shoes” by blasting him in the face with a shotgun. Watch this flick back-to-back with Evil Dead II for the best night in, like, ever.

Easter egg: Campbell did a tribute to this scene in a 1997 episode of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, complete with the "little Goody Two-Shoes" dance.

Check out The Evil Dead Lost Interview with a young Bruce Campbell and Rob Tapert:

This interview was taped on May 4th, 1983 with Bruce Campbell and Rob Tapert for a public access show in Roseville, Michigan called "The Fast Track". Due to copyright, all film clips from the movie "Evil Dead" have been edited out of this interview. This includes the opening credits to this show.

A Sam Raimi-directed prequel to the story of "The Wizard of Oz" - called simply "Oz" - will be filmed later this year at a Detroit-area studio that recently opened on the site of a former General Motors truck plant and office complex.

Raleigh Michigan Studios said Friday the Disney ( DIS - news - people ) film will be the largest feature to shoot in the state, which has been luring some major film projects in recent years thanks to a program that offered some of the most generous tax credits in the nation.
